The Best Damn Fried Rice

I love fried rice and when we go out for Chinese food my husband always orders white rice and I get fried rice. I love, love, love fried rice. The flavors of the soy sauce, the sesame oil mixed with rice and veggies is just so tasty to me. Have I mentioned I love fried rice? Anyhow, having a great fried rice in your cooking arsenal is imperative. Perfect for date night, a busy school night or a lazy Saturday night.

The key to this dish is the refrigeration of the rice after its been cooked. Allowing the rice to get cold before frying helps to make the rice firmer and absorb more of the liquid resulting in a really good fry on the rice. I’ve tried this rice both with the refrigeration method and without and I can definitely tell a difference in the texture. Try it and let me know what you think.

This fried rice is so damn good that I think I’ve converted my husband to loving fried rice.
